After the three Ascension cycles you move to a Live account with Midgard's real capital, starting at $1,000 to $4,000 by size. Minimum balance: 30% of the highest end-of-day balance, which only rises; if equity touches it, the account is liquidated. No targets or payout caps. It requires extra verification (proof of address, phone and tax ID) and the trader pays their own market data.

• Raid: once per CME session; after a payout, wait for the next session (6 PM ET).
• Conquest: after 5 days at the minimum daily profit ($200, $250, $300 and $350 by size) and total profit of at least 5 times that minimum.
• Ascension: one bounty each completed cycle.

EOD Challenge
Every 7 winning days (a winning day = net P&L ≥ 0.2% of account balance).

Sprint Challenge
Every 5 winning days.

FLEX Challenge
Every 5 winning days, with request windows on the 5th-8th and 20th-23rd of each month.

Instant Funded
Every 7 winning days. Minimum 10 calendar days before first payout. After first payout, must surpass previous equity high before next request.

GOAT Daily
Payout requests every 24 hours once funded.

GOAT Access

Minimum payout: $500 across all sizes.

Paid as soon as you confirm an eligible request. It can be held while your latest fills are checked (about 15 minutes) or while the account is under review.

Up to 3 resets per Trial account, bought manually. They restore the starting balance and erase the account history. Non-refundable.

Available on evaluation plans (EOD, Sprint, FLEX, GOAT Access). Reset fees:

• EOD: $50K $59 · $100K $109 · $150K $159
• Sprint: $25K $46 · $50K $69 · $100K $99
• FLEX: up to two resets; prices in the challenge catalogue. Resets keep the DLL selection.

Instant Funded and Instant Lite accounts cannot be reset.

PLAT End-of-Day Drawdown boost: a Trial bought with it trails the highest end-of-day balance instead of intraday equity. Its price is not public.

FLEX: optional daily loss limit at checkout for a lower purchase price; applies in both phases, closes the account if reached and is retained on reset. Optional 90% profit split for a 20% surcharge.

Points-based rewards program (no formal tiers). Earn points by passing challenges, withdrawing, social engagement and trading milestones. Redeem for perks such as:

• +5% profit split on withdrawal (150 points)
• Faster 24h withdrawals (150 points)
• Account scaling +10% size (200 points)
• +$500 extra max drawdown (200 points)
• Free $25K / $50K challenge accounts (350 / 500 points)

Intraday trailing: it follows the highest equity, unrealized profit included. On the Trial it locks at the profit target. Once funded it locks at the starting balance when profit reaches the buffer, which equals the drawdown. Losses and payouts reduce it dollar for dollar; at zero the account fails.

One-time fee. No monthly subscription and no recurring charges. EOD, Sprint, FLEX Challenge and GOAT Access are paid up-front to enter the evaluation phase.

Bots, AI execution and mass order entry are forbidden.

Personal automated strategies and EAs are allowed, provided they are consistent with the trader's style and do not exploit system vulnerabilities, latency, or data feed anomalies. Strategies designed to manipulate the simulated environment are prohibited.

Trades under 12 seconds count as microscalping and cannot exceed 50% of trades or profit. Tick scalping is forbidden.

Manual scalping allowed. Tick scalping remains prohibited. The 2-minute micro-scalping rule was removed on all plans, new and existing accounts. At each reward request, at least 70% of closed trades must be held over 1 minute and at least 70% of net profit must come from those trades. Failing the check is not a breach: the account stays open, the request is declined and the profit from sub-1-minute trades is removed.

Contract limit by account size, in minis or micros.

Only between your own Midgard accounts. Copying other traders or signal services is forbidden.

Copy trading between your own accounts is allowed (e.g. between multiple GFF accounts in your name). Bundle discounts (2 or 3 accounts) are available and you can copy trades to all simultaneously. Cross-user copy trading is not addressed in the helpcenter.

Free on the Trial. Once funded, stay flat from 2 minutes before to 2 minutes after NFP, CPI and FOMC; other news is free.

Evaluation phase (EOD, Sprint, FLEX)
No news trading restrictions.

Funded phase (all account types including Instant)
2-minute buffer around high-impact news events. Within 2 min before/after release you cannot open, close or trigger pending orders. Positions opened before the window may be held through the event.

GOAT Access
News trading not allowed.

Microscalping rule
EOD, Sprint, Instant: profits from trades closed within 2 minutes of opening are deducted (not a breach but profits invalid).
FLEX: microscalping rule does NOT apply.

At least one trade every 28 days, counted from purchase or the last reset. Otherwise the account is closed with no refund; they email about 5 days before.

15 consecutive days without trades results in account breach. Applies to both evaluation and funded accounts. Once breached, account cannot be reinstated and fees are non-refundable. Notify support in advance if you plan to be away.

40% on the Trial only: the best day cannot exceed 40% of profit. You need the target or the best day divided by 0.4, whichever is higher. None once funded.

No single day can represent more than:

• EOD Challenge — Evaluation: 50% of total profits. Funded: 30% during a payout period.
• Sprint Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: 35%.
• FLEX Challenge — Evaluation: 50%. Funded: none.
• Instant Funded — 20% (the tightest of all plans).
• Instant Lite — 15% for the 1st payout, 20% for the 2nd, 25% from the 3rd onwards.
• GOAT Daily — Evaluation: 40%. Funded: none.
• GOAT Access: none during the evaluation.

Violating the rule blocks the next payout but does not close the account.

Overnight holding NOT permitted (all account types). All positions must be closed before the end of the trading session. Weekend holding also NOT permitted.

• Bots, AI or mass order entry
• One- or two-tick tick scalping
• Exploiting simulated fills: rapid-fire orders, gaps, slippage-free stops, tight brackets and auto-breakeven
• Latency arbitrage or price errors
• Hedging across accounts and opposite positions in correlated products (NQ and MNQ)
• Martingale or averaging down
• Copying other traders or trading for others
• VPN, proxy or an external or slow data feed

• Tick scalping and other extremely short-duration trading.
• Unrealistic execution that relies on simulated market conditions (slippage, liquidity, partial fills) not replicable in live.
• Holding positions overnight or over the weekend.
• Trading affected instruments inside the 2-minute high-impact news buffer on funded accounts.

Everything is flattened automatically at 4:45 PM ET and you stay flat until the 6:00 PM ET reopen.
